Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012022684A1] Method for producing a thermoelectric module (1) and a tubular thermoelectric module (1) at least comprising an inner tube (2), an outer tube (3) and an interspace (4) arranged therebetween, wherein at least a plurality of rings (6) each formed by a plurality of n- and p-doped semiconductor elements (5) arranged alternately in a circumferential direction are arranged in succession in an axial direction (10) of the thermoelectric module (1) in the interspace (4), wherein, on an inner side (7) or an outer side (8) of the semiconductor elements (5) of one ring (6), electrically conductive first connections (9) run only in the circumferential direction (12) and, on the opposite outer side (8) or inner side (7), at least one electrically conductive second connection (16) electrically conductively connects an n-doped to a p-doped semiconductor element (5) of an adjacent ring (6) and runs at least in an axial direction (10) of the thermoelectric module (1).
